Odisha has achieved the distinction of being the leading State in the country in providing durable pucca houses to poor people in rural areas.

Sources in the Government said more than 12,18,000 houses have already been constructed in the State for rural poor since 2014-15 fiscal.

Officials discharging responsibilities with commitment and diligence in implementation of this scheme would be provided with all possible administrative support and protection, he assured.
